django-auditlog is a reusable Django app that logs changes made to model objects, including the user (actor) who made them. It stores change summaries in JSON and is designed to be simple, fast, and dependency-light compared to full version-control-style solutions.
Use cases
- track who changed a Django model record and what changed
- keep an audit trail of object changes for compliance
- log model field diffs in JSON format
- replace django admin's built-in log with something more flexible
- record the actor behind automated and user-driven changes
When to choose
- you need a lightweight audit trail for Django models without full object versioning
- you want to know which user modified which records and when
- you prefer minimal dependencies and simple JSON change summaries
When to avoid
- you need full version control, rollback, or historical snapshots of objects
- you are not using Django
- you need audit logging outside the ORM layer, such as raw SQL or external services
